Focused on the next generation of chemical sensor and
chemical detection devices, the emphasis of Seacoast Science is on the
development of gas sensors for a variety of markets including leak
detection, military, homeland security, air quality monitoring, and
emission gas detection.

The core
technology is based on a Seacoast Science designed MEMS-based
capacitive platform. Combined with specific chemically-selective
polymers this technology platform is easily adapted to meet many
chemical sensing applications. More...

Handheld detector systems Seacoast Science's current handheld detection systems weigh
less than four ounces (100g) yet are rugged enough to be deployed aboard
unmanned air vehicles or individual soldiers. The handheld detection
systems can also be utilized in fixed locations, such as office building
entrances, factories or airport baggage check-in. We are currently
designing systems for defense applications, government agencies, national
laboratories and first responders.

Educational Mini GC Plus Seacoast
Science and Vernier Software and Technology, a leading provider of
scientific technology for educators, have release the new Mini GC
Plus. This release provides upgraded features. The features
include higher maximum temperature, offering more flexibility in
designing temperature profiles. And two level sensitivity
settings for the improved sesnor. The Mini GC Plus Provids teachers
with latest and most advanced analytical tools.

About the size of a shoe box, the Vernier Mini GC Plus
Uses Seacoast's advanced MEMS sensor technology. Our detector along
with a custom designed software-controlled internal flow and heating
system, allow for the use of normal room air as a carrier gas. This
makes the system ideal for use in a class room setting. Learn More About the Vernier Mini GC
